Tip for new players: The Early Game category says this is a Early Game creature, its Encountering wise, not taming, its near the beach swamps and non aggressive, but it needs to be knocked out and it needs to be quick as to slow and it curls up in its shell, it eats sweet vegetable cake that is hard to get requireing giant bee honey wich is a late/mid game item requireing ghille and high level health and speed, ghille needs organic poly, and its a hard to get item. Unless you kill snails. So in summary its not a Early Game tame, its a Early Game encounter.

Mine kept glitching while taming, took almost triple the cakes and double the time (kept saying put food in inventory to tame). I found a way to bypass this by putting a stack of berries and a stack of meat in it's inventory along with cakes while it's knocked out. Hope this helps someone if anyone else has had this problem.

So... Achatinas! The Snaily Bois!

These will give you Cementing Paste (or rather, Achatina Paste which functions exactly the same as Cementing Paste if left on wandering).

Found in the swamps and usually killed by the stronher creatures around, tanes these bad bois up, set them to wandering and get as much paste as you need!

(or use the big frog, but where is the fun (or snails) in that!)

Only get one of these AFTER you have set up a redwood platform for tree sap. And AFTER you have mastered stealing honey from bees, or tamed 2 or 3 queen bees. Once tamed, just build a little 2x2 room with no roof and keep the snails in there. I level only food stat and I have 6 snails right now. When breeding, THEY ALL GET PREGNANT! So you can easily increase their numbers if you have the cake production. The snail team produces like 100+ organic polymer by the time i log in each day(each snail has 16 on it currently and over 3k food each so I dont need to feed them everyday) which I use to turn into metal arrows and any upgraded guillie suit pieces and use crafted polymer for the major items.

I have 10 of these and never have a issue with paste... ever. I have flown 3 argies full of obsidian back to base and ran out of that before the paste. Also makes repairing gillie suit so much easier. Any time it breaks I run to the snail shed and have enough organic poly to repair pretty much anything.
